Vedes Tripped Up

We caught up with the action on fourth street as the board read {2-Spades} {7-Clubs} {K-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}. It was a heads-up pot, and Brian Powell checked to Tommy Vedes. The latter made a bet of 875, and Powell slowly called.

The {A-Hearts} river drew another check from Powell, and Vedes paused before making a bet of 1,150. Powell took a long time to stare, but he eventually snuck in a check-raise to 2,600 straight. Vedes didn't like it, but he splashed in the call.

Powell tabled {K-Spades} {Q-Diamonds} for the trips, and it was easily the best hand from the looks of it. Vedes had been working his stack upwards to start the day, but that little hit puts him back to 31,000.
